Spatial Heterogeneity in the Photosynthetic Characteristics of Scleractinian coral Symbiodinium from the Northern South China Sea

open access: yesRedai dili
Investigations have revealed significant degradation of nearshore coral reef areas in the South China Sea in recent decades; thus, coral reef conservation is in urgent need of more scientific management insights.

Partitioning of Respiration in an Animal-Algal Symbiosis: Implications for Different Aerobic Capacity Between <i>Symbiodinium</i> spp.

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbioses are ecologically important and the subject of much investigation. However, our understanding of critical aspects of symbiosis physiology, such as the partitioning of total respiration between the host and symbiont ...

Physiological Responses of Pocillopora acuta and Porites lutea Under Plastic and Fishing Net Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Marine debris has become a global problem affecting coral health around the globe. However, the photophysiological responses of corals to marine debris stress remain unclear.

Translocation Study of Some Zooxanthellae Clade to the Survival and Growth of Goniastrea Aspera After Bleaching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Inter-host translocation technique of zooxanthellae was attempted to prove Buddemier and Futin's (1993) theory on adaptation. The recent trend of coral products trading must be anticipated by its mass production through artificial techniques, the ...

Early Development of Zooxanthella-containing Eggs of the Corals Porites cylindrica and Montipora digitata: The Endodermal Localization of Zooxanthellae [PDF]

open access: yesZoological Science, 2006
We studied the early development of zooxanthellae-containing eggs of the scleractinian corals Porites cylindrica and Montipora digitata to elucidate how zooxanthellae become localized to the endoderm of planulae during the course of development. In both species, zooxanthellae were distributed evenly in the oocytes and delivered almost equally to the ...

Comparison of zooxanthellae densities from upside-down jellyfish, Cassiopea xamachana, across coastal habitats of The Bahamas

open access: yes, 2016
Anthropogenic disturbances may drive jellyfish blooms, and previous studies have suggested this is the case for upside-down jellyfish (Cassiopea xamachana). Cassiopea were found to have higher mean zooxanthellae densities in human-impacted areas on Abaco

Photosynthetic planulae and planktonic hydroids: contrasting strategies of propagule survival

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2000
Settlement delays can be important to prevent propagule waste when proper settling substrates are not immediately available. Under laboratory conditions, the planulae of Clytia viridicans underwent two alternative developmental patterns.

Zooxanthellae expelled from bleached corals at 33°C are photosynthetically competent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
While a number of factors have been linked to coral bleaching, such as high light, high temperature, low salinity, and UV exposure, the best explanation for recent coral bleaching events are small temperature excursions of 1 to 2°C above summer sea ...

High‐resolution coral oxygen and carbon isotope records reveal temperature and autotrophy dynamics in a Mediterranean climate change hotspot

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 11, Page 3261-3276, November 2025.
Abstract The Mediterranean Sea is warming at a rate exceeding the global average. Long‐term, high‐resolution data are essential for contextualizing changes within broader temporal scales, and coral skeletons provide valuable environmental archives, especially in data‐sparse regions or as supplements to existing records.

Effects of reduced dissolved oxygen concentrations on physiology and fluorescence of hermatypic corals and benthic algae. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
While shifts from coral to seaweed dominance have become increasingly common on coral reefs and factors triggering these shifts successively identified, the primary mechanisms involved in coral-algae interactions remain unclear. Amongst various potential
